Cisco Qualifies Cisco Tetration Platform on Oracle Linux Running on Oracle Exadata Database Machine
To provide mutual customers with greater application insights and security, Cisco has qualified the Cisco Tetration platform on Oracle Linux running on Oracle Exadata Database Machine. This combination is available in a Tetration SaaS offering, powered by Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, or on-premises deployments.
The Cisco Tetration platform uses workload and network telemetry data to perform advanced analytics using an algorithmic approach and provides comprehensive workload protection for a multi-cloud data center. This algorithmic approach includes unsupervised machine-learning techniques and behavioral analysis. The platform provides a ready-to-use solution for:
- Visibility into application components, communications, and dependencies, to enable implementation of a zero-trust model in the data center
- Automatic generation of a whitelist policy, based on application behavior, including existing security policy mandated by business requirements
- Consistent enforcement of segmentation policies across a multi-cloud infrastructure to minimize lateral movement
- Identification of software vulnerabilities and exposures to reduce the attack surface
- Process behavior baselining and identification of deviations for faster detection of Indicators of Compromise (IOCs)
By using a multidimensional workload protection approach, Cisco Tetration significantly reduces the attack surface, minimizes lateral movement in case of security incidents, and quickly identifies anomalous behaviors within the data center.
